> Both filters are on the intake side of the box fan. This means you don't need a bungee cord because the intake has negative pressure, the filters just "stick"

I agree with putting them on the intake side, but I still want them to stay put when the fan is turned off (with the switch or to move it to another outlet or in a power outage).



There are large rubber bands you can buy specifically to hold the filter in place on the box fan. I've seen them on Amazon.
